As with the first two paintings in my twelve piece Disney Dreams Collection (affectionately referred to as the "Disney dozen" by die hard collectors!), I try to tell the whole story in a single image - what I refer to as a "narrative panorama". We see Neverland in the distance, just below the "second star to the right", as the full moon bathes the scene with its silvery glow. The lights of London twinkle along the river Thames, as the clouds take shape, if only in our imagination, as characters from the adventure - Captain Hook, Smee, the Lost Boys and the ubiquitous ticking crocodile. But for me, the central character of the story will always remain Tinker Bell, the enchanted fairy princess who makes the entire journey of imagination possible.
